OMPT-A
Business staple; stops at differentiation
Who sits OMPT-A, what it covers, how fast it runsShow
If your offer letter mentions International Business, Economics, or a business-adjacent bachelor at a Dutch university, this is almost certainly your test. I see more OMPT-A students than all other variants combined. It stops at differentiation (no trig, no integrals), so the fight is won on algebra speed rather than exotic topics.

Pace
52 questions in 120 minutes is 2.3 minutes per question, so routine algebra has to be automatic; there is no time to derive anything twice.
Typical cutoff 70–75% depending on the programme; the OMPT-A hub lists the universities and their exact minimums.
